About:
In this video, James talks about some of the main differences between a resin model car and a diecast model car. The differences between them may surprise you! - บันเทิง
Diecast because it feels more “premium” to the touch. I wish diecast models could be as highly detailed as high quality resin models though. But no matter how expensive a resin model is, it will always feel more “toy-like” compared to metal diecast to me in real life.
True. I like the micro real feel of it. It's like hot wheels vs match box cars.
the video is looking at a diecast road car which is a waste of video. Tarmac has some incredible direcast race cars, like the ferraris, the Mitsubishi Evo 6.5 come immediately to mind. If you want a really well detailed and great feeling diecast race car, check out MiniGT, they look incredible
that FuelMe Varis looks sick 😍, and i think im more of a resin typa guy 😁
Resins make for some REALLY sick details!
As much as I’d like to buy some resin models, the price makes them rather hard to justify. For example Ignition Model diecast 1/64s are usually no more than $40, while their resin 1/64s can sometimes be over $100, which is typically the price range for diecast 1/48 cars. Of course, Ignition Model probably isn’t the best example here since their cars are far more expensive than average, but you get my point.
I really believe it depends on the buyer, what they like, what they can afford, what scale size they're into, etc.
People have argued that they can get an 18 scale model car for the price of a 64 scale model resin from IG, or a why get a 43 scale when I can just get an 18 scale.
In regards to the IG brand, brand authority plays a HUGE role in anything and definitely a dictator in price. Shoes, watches, cars and in your example even model cars.
There are plenty of resin model car examples that fit within the confines of $50-$60 range as well. Only the bespoke brands that offer the highest of whatever it is they specialize in could justify such price of $100.
This hobby is growing too fast and I think my job is to somewhat explain and differentiate everything as best as possible to justify why you would ultimately make a buying decision.
This is quite similar at 1/43 scale models from my collection..the resin models are more expensive and with a fancier packaging.
And yes, in most of the times the resin models are more detailed but not always..
Great comparison my friend :)
Thank you! Do you know of resin models which are not detailed?
@@modelcarshouston at this moment I am working at some comparison clips. In one of them I compare the diecast Lamborghini Aventador J made by AUTOart with the resin Lamborghini Aventador J made by Fujimi and the AUTOart model is far more detailed..but other than that most of my resin models are more detailed compared with the resin versions.
Are these resin models durable? Do they roll? And can you get them off the base and play with them? Like die cast Hotwheels.
Would be great to see these in 4k 😊
A Subaru fan for sure but, that Fuelme has my vote!
Great channel! MARS sent me over from Mars garage.
Welcome
@@modelcarshouston Thank you.
If you love the car go resin, but I find some resin windows pop loose over time and decals are not cool on any miniature unless they are under the clearcoat. I might get the Fuelme when a better livery comes out. I have that Xmen comic, Jim Lee was one of the best artists for comics back then.
Thanks for stopping by. Of the hundreds that I have seen and sold to my clients I want to say maybe only a handful have had this issue. And the brands that had these issues are off-brands or brands that do not have authority in the resin market.
Maybe I got lucky and my customers have too but some of these higher quality resins I have had for over 2 years now and I have not seen any issues.
I got the same window issue with almost half of my LookSmart models...and it is quite a shame considering the price and the rest of the details..
@@AtTonisGarage same window issue here on my Peako 1/64 P72 De Tomaso
Let's see more SW20 MR2s!!! I never have bought an 18th scale Resin ;).
Peako Models did a run of 18 scale SW20s!!!
Hahaha high end resin I was thinking Igniton Model, T&P or Makeup
High end diecast I thought you would mention IM too, PGM for sure or many more pricier ones. 🤣
Those are in the same boat for sure!
I have a resin Top Marquee Ferrari F40 in 1:18 scale and also a Kyosho 1:18 model of the same model.
And the resin is high quality. The interior of the resin is higher quality than the Kyosho. The only drawback is the surface of the resin will pick up more blemishes. It’s much like my mount blanc pen which is also resin and has picked up the same sort of blemishes.
Also, door and bonnet openings are not a deal breaker for me. I’d say that gives the body of resin a higher quality than the die cast model.
Diecast Always
Ah yes !
Recently i bought my first Tarmac, and is amazing, im already a fan of this brand
There we go!
I'm starting to collect mini gt's and inno64.
Yes, time to step up the collecting game!!!
İs there any cheap resin brands in the price range of mini gt, that I can find in turkey
No sir
DIECAST ALL THE WAY, SOMTHING DO WITH TRADITION WITH ME THATS WHY.
absolutely!!!!
Unfortunately these days, hot wheels premium are getting harder to find and more expensive. For the price I’ve seen ER34 premiums go for, you’re better off getting a resin version of the same thing for cheaper
Are you speaking on RLC R34 models? Are you not in America because premiums are only $6.49 each.
@@jameshawkins809only if you can beat scalpers, Purple RLC skyline price you can get 5 Inno64 R34's for less and way more detail
So which one is the resin and the die-cast?
Yellow is the diecast
Awesome models new subscriber here

Welcome and thank you!
resin looks nicer but ive always been more of a diecast kind of guy
I just need to know if they roll
these do not
Are resin cars is strong like metal cars
Absolutely not. If you drop it, pretty much RIP. However, structural integrity never really dictated making a choice between a metal or resin.
Personally when I am paying $99 for a 1:64 I would rather consider paying $200 and buy an AUTOART 1:18. However, I am confused by the quality difference of the composite AutoART vs Ignition. I don't really care if the wheels don't roll or doors don't open. I would rather have a more realistic look and quality. Is Ignition really 2 times better than AutoART in terms of quality?
Have you ever seen an 1/18 scale resin model in person?
@@modelcarshouston No I haven't. I've only seen AutoART diecast signature series around 6 years ago and I was impressed by the detailing.
Imagine the resin 1/64 S2000 but in 1/18 and you'll get a good idea for what you're dealing with.
AutoArt all day every day
i'm a collector and im a die hard racer. I love the blue one for display i just wish those tarmac rolled fast. i hate the idea of swapping tires on premiums but i do at times with custom cast plastic wheels. Loved the video
You can't go wrong with WR Blue!
I personally don't want all the details in 1/64, for me I try not to spent more that $20 in 1/64, I try to get all replicas that have existed in the real world in 1/64. If I want more detailed cars I prefer to pay more for a 1/18 decent brand in the range of $200-$300 maybe $400 that opens all doors or if I really want something super detailed with quality materials maybe I could spent to the thousand but I only have one of this expensive ones so far otherwise I don't see the point to pay for expensive details in 1/64 may be 1/43 that doesn't open but it has to roll yes I like to touch and open all my collection cars, scales from 1/24 to up they have to open.
not a great comparison, you're comparing a road car to a race car and complaining that the road car is missing the bells and whistles of the race car. Tarmac has plenty of gorgeous race cars, it makes no sense to me why you're not comparing two complex castings.
also how about mentioning if the resin models roll? are they heavier than diecast metal/metal models? All i learned from this video is that a $60 race car model is nicer than a $20 road car model. i feel like a $15 Mini GT race car kind of puts both to shame, at least based on what you discuss in the video.
That has to be the worst example of a Tarmac car that I've ever seen.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
To be fair, tarmac QC is absolute dumpster.
@@muhdanwar7240 unfortunately
for real. pretty terrible comparison. Tarmac has incredible looking race cars that would've went toe to toe with that resin race car. but i guess he's a store and needs to push those $60 models
second :D
Everyone is a winner!
Bro, you cannot compare a $24 model to a $60 model no matter what they're made of. A $60 model will always be better or there is something seriously wrong if it's beaten by the $24 car. Not to mention the manufacturer of the $60 car deserve to go out of business.
If you're gonna compare models to which is better - you need to do it at the same price point.
First
Winner
resin is just stupid , that's not diecast !
Diecast is a method of manufacturing. You can have diecast plastic cars because that's how they're made.
$65 for a 1/64 is absolutely stupid. You can get a maisto, bburago, solido or motormax car for less price, all of which will have more details and opening features, steering and maybe even suspension. Absolutely idiotic to pay that much for 1/64 when you can have 1/18 for less.
It all comes down to the collector. If theyre the type to collect the most elite in 64 thrn you're going to have to pay to get such.
Also, if you've never seen a model car in that price bracket you are not experienced to argue.
Some would argue paying $65 for a lower grade 1/18 does not make sense either you know.
@@modelcarshouston I have seen them, my friend has many. I always ask him why he bought them, he always says that "because i wanted to". I personally wouldnt get any 1/64 model over $30, no matter how elite, buy thats my opinion.
@@juicy__plane6712 good luck finding new smarter friends who will believe what you believe in because you thought your friend makes idiotic, stupid decisions by buying something he simply wants with his own money.
@@juicy__plane6712 you also have to think about space... usually when ppl start collecting, it's easy, but when the collection grows, then you have a problem. So sometimes the solution is to scale it down. to make a detailed 1/64 is harder then in other scales and that reflects the price tag. Not saying its better or worse, but you have to consider the impact of a colection in your home, at least thats my case. In terms of resin or diecast, i love the resin details but hate it feels like paper. Prefer dicast all the way but would love some of the details to be more sharp like resin.
i collect only 64 scale but i agree $65 is quite high, i hover in the $15-30 range. I dont collect 64 due to cost but due to space and display opportunities. Having a 64 diorama of a rally race beats out anything you can do with 1/18 in a normal house. Having said that, there are still some expensive 64 scale cars absolutely worth getting, the TVL Silhouette comes to mind. Besides, $50 tier 1/18 models like Solida, burago/maisto are just rubbish.
